National Regeneration Movement

The National Regeneration Movement (MORENA) is a social democratic political party in Mexico that was founded in 2014 by Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador. The party originated as a nonprofit organization founded in 2012 to support Lopez Obrador's presidential candidacy, but Lopez Obrador left the Party of the Democratic Revolution and turned the MORENA movement into a political party in 2014. In December 2017, it formed an alliance with the Labor Party of Mexico and the Social Encounter Party.
